Warren Thacker Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) Hello all. I wanted to post a couple chef's knives I've made recently. I'd love to hear some feedback. I've got a Nakiri style in the works at the moment. I'll post it after completion.

Alan Longmire Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Welcome aboard! I particularly like the second one. Are you making the steel as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren Thacker Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Thanks for the welcome Alan. And, yes. The second one was under the instruction of Burt Foster (with his nice press and power hammer), and I agree it is a nicer pattern. I made some dies similar to what I used at his place to try on my little press. We'll see how the Nakiri turns out. Thacker Knives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Longmire Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 That makes sense. Burt won't steer you wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren Thacker Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 I learned so much from Burt. It was definitely beneficial taking a class with him. Thacker Knives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSJackson Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I just finished the 3 day chef knife class with Burt. It was a great class for me with years of knifemaking but needing to fix bad habits and learn new stuff, but also some absolute beginners in the class made great knives. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
